Active ingredient on file: Imidocarb Dipropionate Inj Sol. Reported administration routes include Subcutaneous, Intramuscular, Unknown, Ophthalmic. These numbers reflect voluntary submissions from pet owners, veterinarians, and manufacturers and therefore under-represent mild events and over-represent severe ones — a pattern the FDA has documented repeatedly for pharmacovigilance datasets.

Within those species, Greyhound (12), Unknown (5), Domestic Shorthair (4) appear most often — though breed popularity and ownership density shape these counts as much as any drug-specific sensitivity. This distribution matters because the same active ingredient can behave very differently across body sizes, ages, and species physiology.

The most commonly reported clinical signs associated with Imidocarb Dipropionate Inj Sol are Death (7), Panting (5), Hypersalivation (5), Injection site lump (5). Of the 51 reports with a coded outcome, Ongoing is the leading category at 39.2%. Because FDA adverse event data describes correlation rather than causation, these figures are best used to frame informed questions with a veterinarian and to compare reporting patterns across related products — not as a standalone safety verdict on Imidocarb Dipropionate Inj Sol.
